Bagged yard waste needs to be placed curbside in recyclable paper yard waste bags. Be aware that these bags will not hold up well after getting damp, so minimize the amount of time they are stored outside. Contact (615) 452-2147 to schedule your leaf/lawn bag pickup. It is best to put them out the day before or the day of pickup. With the exception of holiday weeks, the pickup will occur on the day following your trash pickup.

Please do not place brush, dirt, bricks, rocks, tires, hazardous materials (such as hypodermic needles, paint, muriatic acid and gasoline), or building materials (such as lumber, drywall, shingles and ceramic tile) in the container. Contact the Sumner County Resource Authority at (615) 452-1114 about proper disposal of these items.
